Jupiter's Name

lucasv4 — 2015-04-21 17:55:37 UTC

Jupiter's name comes from the roman version of Zeus because of early astronomers realizing its immense size.

Jupiter (or Jove, but known as Zeus to the Greeks)

sorenl1 — 2015-04-21 20:27:35 UTC

He overthrew his Father Saturn (in Greek, Cronus). He then drew lots with his brothers Poseidon and Hades to determine who would be the supreme ruler of the gods.

Jupiter's Look

lucasv4 — 2015-04-21 20:38:57 UTC

Without a telescope or powerful binoculars it looks like a red dot, as big as a large star. With technological assistance you can see a red and baige color sphere with wavy detail, if your telescope is strong enough.

Jupiter's First Discovery

GroupChats — 2015-04-21 20:42:23 UTC

In 1610, Galileo Galilei turned his telescope onto Jupiter. He after realized that he realized it had 4 large moons orbiting it.

Jupiter's Circumference

lucasv4 — 2015-04-21 21:04:59 UTC

It is 317.83 times as massive as the earth and has a circumference of approximately 449 200 kilometers.

Jupiter's Mass

lucasv4 — 2015-04-21 21:10:07 UTC

It is the second heaviest object in the solar system next to the sun,

more then twice as heavy as all the planets added up. 1.898E27kgs.

Length of Jupiter's Day

lucasv4 — 2015-04-21 21:17:58 UTC

Its great gravity pulls on it as it spins making a full rotation 9 earth hours and 56 earth minutes.

Length of Jupiter's Year

lucasv4 — 2015-04-21 21:33:55 UTC

Jupiter is in the outer part of the universe and because it is heavy it also is harder for the sun to keep in orbit making its year 12 earth years and 29 earth days.

Jupiter's Atmosphere

lucasv4 — 2015-04-22 14:29:38 UTC

It is made mostly of non compact cold gases swirling in storms made of 90% hydrogen, 10% helium, and 0.7% trace gases going down to a Neptune size cold silicon and ice.

Jupiter's Formation

lucasv4 — 2015-04-22 17:13:31 UTC

Jupiter was formed approximately 4.5 billion years ago along with the rest of the solar system. Its core of rock and ice was the original part with gases left over from the ruble of the asteroid belt combed around it.

Jupiter

sorenl1 — 2015-04-22 17:16:49 UTC

Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest planet in the Solar System. It is a giant planet with a mass one-thousandth of that of the Sun, but is two and a half times that of all the other planets in the Solar System combined.

Jupiter's Gravitational Effect

lucasv4 — 2015-04-22 17:19:04 UTC

It's mass is what keeps the asteroid belt in line and keeps it's over 100 moons in orbit. It controls most outer solar system planets, asteroids, comets, hyper belt/ asteroid belt etc.

some of Jupiter's main attractions are the giant red spot or the overall mass of the planet. Jupiter's red spot is even more giant then the Earth, however it is 300 years old and has been shrinking for all that time.
